Paid Educational Leave Convention, 1974 (No. 140) - Guyana (RATIFICATION: 1983)

With reference to its previous comments, the Committee notes the samples of collective agreements ensuring the granting of paid educational leave in the private sector, which the Government enclosed with its last report. It notes the information that the Government has no statistical information on the number of public sector employees who are granted paid educational leave. It hopes that in the future, the Government will be in a position to provide the information requested under Part V of the report form on the manner in which the Convention is applied in practice, providing extracts of studies, enquiries or reports together with statistics on the number of workers in the public and the private sector who are granted paid educational leave. The Committee recalls that it needs this information in order to evaluate fully the effect given to the Convention.
